Local Roundup
BERNE — The Starfires piled up the seconds and thirds. But didn’t win enough to avoid their first losses of the season.
South Adams’ swim teams each fell for the first time Tuesday as the girls team lost 87-81 and the boys team took a 95-75 defeat.
The meet marked the first loss for the girls team, which opened 5-0. The Starfires won their first six meets of the season last year.
The boys team is now 2-1.
There were only three victories all night for the Starfires, two of which came from the Lehmans.
Sophomore Haleigh Lehman cruised in the girls 100-yard butterfly. She was first by more than two seconds over Nicole Stein in 1-minute, 7.55 seconds.
Senior Heath Lehman, Haleigh’s brother, matched her effort by eking out a win over Colin Brown in the boys 100-yard butterfly.
He won with a time of 1:05.18, just ahead of Brown’s 1:05.62.
The only other Starfire win was recorded by Chelsea Yoder, who took the 50-yard freestyle in 27.37.
SA spiral continues
WINCHESTER — Teams always prefer to play at home. But, Doug Beall and his South Adams Starfire girls basketball team have got to be looking forward to a game against the Leo Lions no matter where it’s played.
South Adams is still looking for its first victory after a 74-43 drubbing at the hands of the Winchester Golden Falcons.
The Starfires (6-0), who have now lost 13 in a row, will visit 0-6 Leo Friday.
Winchester (6-2) bolted out of the gate with 27 first-quarter points and never let South Adams have a chance. The Golden Falcons had a 36-18 lead at the half as they cruised to victory.
They had five players in double figures, including Mallory McCormick with 18 points and Rachel Hirschy added 14. Chelsea Hawley, Lyndsey Goodhew and Alli Woodbury each added 12 points.
The Starfires, playing without four players because of illness, got 14 points from Erin McCollum and 12 from Julie Muhlenkamp.
Muhlenkamp had seven rebounds and two blocks, and McCollum finished with three steals.
JoLyn Yoder had six points and four rebounds, and Kayla Coblentz had seven assists, six steals and three rebounds.
South Adams played without Kindle Inniger, Natalie Haines, Brooke Fox and Alyssa Miller. Inniger, who has pneumonia, could be out for a month.
Winchester also won the junior varsity game, 25-19.
